Exciting Words Starter Group Activity
An exciting 'Exciting Words' starter.
Get your students into small groups. Lay out the 'boring words' on each table. (e.g. said, little, sad) Give the groups 5 minutes to write as many exciting words as they can, which they could use instead of the boring word, around each boring word. e.g. around 'said' they could write 'exclaimed' 'whispered' 'gasped'.
Next ask the groups to move to a new boring word and see if they can add any more words.
I usually ask them to move once more.
Next ask a student from each group to read out the exciting words.
This could be an activity where they use a thesaurus.
This resource includes a 'teachers notes' sheet which has lots of good examples for each word.
Display this work to inform the next piece of writing.
